Son of George and Hannah Named the eldest son in his father’s will, he was still a minor in 1686 when the will was written but was of age by 16 June 1691 when Elizabeth and Ann Ivey were ordered to live with him. He was dead by 16 September 1694, when his widow Margaret was identified as the wife of Francis Thelaball, and his brother George Ivey, as executor of their father, sued Francis Thelabell for the estate of his father in Thelaball’s possession. Alexander’s inventory was recorded a month later. He evidently had no children, since his estate was awarded to his brother George. It is interesting to speculate on why George Ivey named his eldest son “Alexander”, not a particularly common name at the time. Given the absence of any known Alexander in the Ivey family, it is possible that was the name of his guardian or perhaps of his wife’s father.[1]
